Chapter 148 Maritime Transport

"Woo. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" The train whistled and drove into the station.

Inside the stuffy tanker, there is a bad smell, in the past few days, they have almost circled the whole of Spain, the bad thing is that they are almost falling apart these days, and the strongest warriors, holding in the stuffy tanker for a few days, will also collapse.

And the good thing is that they finally transported this wagon of gold safely to the port!

Pushing open the door of the stuffy tanker, the smell of a fresh sea breeze blew, and everyone felt much more comfortable.

"Quick, quick, quick!" At this time, Alexander's eyes were all bloodshot, and in the past few days, he modified his route many times, and finally, foolproofly, transported the gold to the port.

Now, the eyes of those Germans may still be waiting for them in the southern ports, right? Alexander was quite proud, came all the way, and was quite calm.

Now, there is only one last thing left, to put this gold on the ship!

The train went directly to the port, and there was a distance of hundreds of meters between the train space in the port and the Soviet cargo ship Amur moored at the dock.

That leaves one last thing.

Alexander cheered up, he knew that he must not let his guard down now, could it be that those guys would run here to rob him? Six hundred tons of gold, a number that has driven countless people crazy.

Moreover, the work of carrying is very slow.

Standing at the top of the dock, Alexander personally supervised the handling, and this was the final task.

As long as the gold is loaded onto the cargo ship, Alexander's mission is over.

After all, a cargo ship is a country's maritime territory, and no one will intercept a cargo ship without a valid reason.

At the same time, in order to prevent accidents, the Amur cargo ship will definitely not act on its own, and the Soviet warship Tashkent-class destroyer has already arrived here at the same time, and when it comes time to return, it will provide protection along the way.

In fact, the size of this destroyer is a bit small, and if the news of the Amur's gold transportation leaks out, it may attract more pretenders. However, this destroyer is on behalf of the Soviets, and an attack on this warship would mean a declaration of war on the Soviet Union.

All countries will definitely weigh it, and in the end, they can only watch their own warships escort the transport ship away, and they will never dare to do it.

Moreover, this is the only one, which will not attract the attention of other countries, and if a large number of warships are sent in a big way, the British will certainly be the first to be alert.

The most worrying thing is land, as long as he gets on the ship and leaves the port, Alexander can breathe a sigh of relief.

He didn't know that at this time, a few kilometers away from the port, someone was already observing the roof of a small building.

"And we guessed it right, the Soviets, sure enough, they were unloaded from here." Facing the sea breeze and carefully observing this side with a telescope, Reinhardt sat down and looked relaxed.

"Major Reinhardt, you are a god!" The assistant said respectfully.

"On land, it's nothing, we're going to inform Captain Skorzny and come down to see them." Reinhardt said.

Reinhardt was a little regretful, due to various factors, he could not rob this batch of gold on the ground, and his task was only to supervise and find all the information of the other party, and the operation was handed over to the people led by Skorzny.

I really want to grab the gold with my own hands.

The gold was moved for a whole day, and when night fell, the Amur and Tashkent-class destroyers secretly left the port and set out on their return journey.

The Amur, a cargo ship with a displacement of a thousand tons, and now, loaded with six hundred tons of gold, the cargo ship is already heavy, the draft is deep, and the speed has also decreased.

The two large chimneys at the top kept emitting puffs of black smoke, and the boilers were working at full power, but unfortunately, they could only run the ship at 12 knots.

Compared to cargo ships, this is already a good speed, and some of the supertankers of later generations can only travel at a speed of 6 knots.

The Tashkent class, on the other side, is a little impatient.

The Tashkent class in history is a warship built by the Italians with the help of the Soviet Union, and it was not completed until 37 years later, it is a high-speed ship, and in the sea trial, it once ran out of a high speed of 43.5 knots, which is considered a complete merit.

And now, Germany has robbed the Italians of the contract, or rather, it has nothing to do with the Italians, and Ciric's visit has successfully taken down this kind of ship and built one for the Soviets, and the Soviets are quite satisfied.

Therefore, the Tashkent class is different from history, for example, from the power point of view, this warship does not use boilers, but uses the latest German MAN diesel engine, although it is only equipped with two, it can also make this warship soar to a high speed of 30 knots, and at the same time, the endurance brought by the diesel engine has also been greatly improved, more than 10,000 nautical miles.

After equipping the Soviet Navy with this warship, they were very satisfied, and if it were not for the follow-up plan to purchase aircraft carriers, the Soviet Union would have planned to let Germany provide several more warships of the same type.

Now, on the Tashkent-class destroyer, Captain Nikolai stood on the bridge, looking at the night sky in the dark, feeling a little anxious.

"Amur, why is it so slow? Can't they hurry any further? Nikolai said.

"We've already urged it with lights, but the Amur is a cargo ship after all, and the current speed is already very difficult." First mate Grassy said to him.

"I really don't know what those people in Moscow think." Nikolai said, "Why don't you send a clipper over." ”

On land, Nikolai doesn't have to worry about it, but when it comes to the sea, Nikolai is the nanny, he must ensure the safety of the Amur, the shorter the time at sea, the better, and at the current speed, it will have to go for half a month!

Now, the mighty purge that took place in the Soviets has not yet begun, and if another year passes, Nikolai's words will be enough to kill him.

"Grassie, you're on duty." Nikolai finally left the bridge helplessly, he was already tired, it was time to go back and rest, the voyage at sea was destined to be long.

And on the lower level, in the engine room, the engineer yawned, and in the noise and vibration, drowsy.

This can be said to be the most difficult place on the entire warship, and it is also the only place where there is no need to guarantee the appearance of the military, for example, the current marine engineers, almost only wear a trouser, and there is still sweat falling down.

It's a pretty normal night.
